As someone who lived in Japan during the 80s, Yot-Chan is absolutely correct.
The 80s, while misguided, was indeed a time of (superficial) prosperity in Japan. Words cannot describe the allure and vitality that existed.
As far as anime is concerned, I would argue it was the golden age of creativity. These days, while shows have better graphics, are mostly rehash of old ideas...
Of course, Japan was also disgustingly arrogant then.
